At the convention letters were read from President Taft and Attorney General Wickersham, which were written to C. Dearman, pledging their support in the fight of the Negroes to prevent the Democrats from unlawfully preventing them from voting. Instructions were given to go to the polls in November, and report any attempt on the part of election officials to stop them from casting their ballots to the United States Commissioner.

COLORED ANTIST DEAD William H. R. Jackson Who Studied Art at Yale While Working as Butler Expires at New Haven—Had Inter- saking Career Spent in the New York City NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 1.—The news of the death of William H. R. Jackson, a colored artist, who died Thursday, September 26, came as a big surprise to all. The deceased was born in Suffolk county, Va., in 1854. His mother was an energetic woman, and managed to secure her and her son's freedom. Nothing is known of Mr. Jackson's father, other than he was a slave holder. Mr. Jackson's early life was spent in the towns of Norfolk and Portsmouth, Va. His daily notes kept by himself gave clues to the life in the swamps, also later life. The losing of Mr. Jackson's first bank account failed to discourage him, and he saved sufficient money to get to New York City. The wonderful works of art displayed in the stores of New York made an indefinite impression on him. He stayed but a short time in the metropolis, coming to New Haven. Here he found employment as an unexperienced butler in the late H. W. Farnan family. He worked faithfully for the family, and in the course of a few years had accumulated sufficient money to accomplish his desire, that of panning Mr. Jackson's treasure. For Valle School of Fine Arts in the year 1880. His fellow students nicknamed him "Michael Angelo" after the famous painter. In 1883 the school awarded him with a certificate. A year later Mr. Jackson married Miss Rebirta Davis, one whom he had loved in his early days. Mrs. Jackson died in 1898. After the death of his cultured wife, he worked at his art between times while at his occupation. He held exhibitions of his work in New York and New Haven. One of his paintings, entitled "The Silence Before the Squall," was exhibited at the World's Fair in New Orleans. He painted over a hundred different paintings. Some were landscapes, others portraits. He was quite a genius in coloring. Many charcoal and pencil drawings were found in his possession. Mr. Jackson was highly respected by all who knew him. I was only four years ago that his health failed. He was retired on a pension by Prof. W. Farnam, his employer. Among the things found in his possession was an excellent collection of firearms old and modern, probably one of the best collections in Connecticut. On Wednesday night, September 18, 1912, he was taken ill with Bright's disease. He was unconscious until Thursday. September 19, when he passed away. His funeral was held on the following Saturday from the Lewis & Maycock mortuary, chapel. The Rev. M. Gain of the Dixwell Avenue Congregational Church officiated. Deceased is survived by four children, Murillo, Ahlu, Riberta, Tintoretto and Berona Jackson. LOENDI CLUB ELECTION Pittsburgh, Pa., Oct. 1.

Chayton Powell Advises Negro to Engage in Business at Emancipation Celebration. Before an audience of twelve hundred persons Sunday afternoon the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, urged that the Negro go in business on a larger scale in Harlem. He produced figures showing that $4,050,000 is spent annually by the race in the Harlem district for food, clothes and shoes alone, twenty per cent, of which sum, or $810,000, is profit. Dr. Powell stated that no race can ever become rich by saving its money, but that the investing of savings enlarges a bank account to a marked degree. "In order to acquire wealth nowadays one must let his money work for him," emphasized the speaker. Exercises in celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation were held at Young's Casino under the auspices of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, the Rev. Dr. Powell being the principal speaker. His subject was: "Some Right to Denied the Colored Race. Powell said that the Negro has the right to acquire education, the right to save his money, buy homes and engage in business, the right to be a Christian optimist and the right to carry an appeal to God. The speaker's address was full of optimism throughout. Others who took part on the program were Dr. W. H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, and Mrs. Martha Tickentack, soloist, "America" and "John Brown's Body" were sung by the audience. The meeting was non-denominational in character. All the local churches were represented and the boxes were occupied by well-known citizens.

The new town has been named after E. Roberts, a wealthy Negro citizen who owns the entire townsite. Surrounding the town are about six thousand acres, controlled and cultivated by members of the race. The Palacios branch of the Southern Pacific Railroad runs through the center of the property. APPOINT COLORED ADVISORY COMMITTEE Taft Managers Select Negroes to Work with National Committee ACTIVE CAMPAIGN PLANNED Aggressive Work to Be Done in all Debt- mite States Until Election Day- Roosevelt Losing Ground. From now until election day the managers of the Taft campaign intend to "whoop 'em up" in vigorous fashion, and a concentrated effort will be made to show the colored voters throughout the country the wisdom of voting for the Republican nominees and the policies of the G. O. P. In connection with the National Republican Committee a Colored Advisory Committee has been appointed, which will make an aggressive campaign among the colored voters. The personnel of the committee follows: Joseph L. Jones, Cincinnati, O.; Phil Waters, Charleston, W. Va.; J. Solomon Gains, Boston, Mass.; Harry S. Cummings, Baltimore, M.; John E. Bush, Little Rock, Ark.; Maj. R. R. Jackson, Chicago, Ill.; Fred R. Moore, New Work; Gilchrist Stewart, New York. The members of the advisory committee, who pass on all matters in the campaign relating to the colored voters, will hold an important conference at the headquarters of the National Republican Committee in the Times Building Saturday afternoon, when the work of the committee will be outlined and the campaign started in earnest. Reports are coming in to Chairman Hilles from all debatable states that Roosevelt is not only steadily losing ground with the white voters, but that hundreds of Negro voters who were for the Colonel some weeks ago have deserted him for Taft. Roosevelt's two faced policy of making a strong bid for the Negroes of the North and favoring the organization of a white man's party is still being debated. While there are still some Negroes who have taken no exceptions to Roosevelt's letter to Julian Harris, the majority look upon his attitude with much disdain and declare that they will show their sentiment at the polls.

Even the Democrats admit that the ticket is a strong one, and that all the candidates are representative men. In the platform adopted at Saratoga a strong Negro plank was adopted, as follows: The Republican party of the State of New York, mindful of the fact that this is the month which marks the fifth anniversary of the issuance by Abraham Lincoln, renews its expression of consistent friendship for the American Negro. It wrote into organe law the declaration that brochured his civil and legal rights, and that by his noteworthy progress in education he has earned the respect and encouragement of the nation. We believe in equal justice for all men without regard to race or color and class in political parties have no place in a democracy. WE DIE TOO YOUNG Dr. Harvey W. Wiley Says if People Would Live in Accord with Nature the Average Expectation of Life would be More than Forty-four Years. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 1.—The principal address at the opening of the Fourth International Conservation Congress in this city Tuesday was made by Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, former Chief of the Burcau of Chemistry in the United States Department of Agriculture, who declared that the people of to-day die too young, due to not living in accord with nature. The average expectation of life in the United States, Dr. Wiley stated he had found from statistics to be found that people of ages average equal to that held in England, France and Belgium, but lower than that of Sweden and Holland. As a means of preventing disease of all kinds Dr. Wiley advocates a higher education on matters of hygiene. Through this means, he said, not only would the individual learn how to take care of his health so that his system would not be open to attacks from germs, but he would also know how to avoid contagion from others. This was the only form of aggregation that the State, no matter how hard it tries, can never force a complete quarantine upon those who are invading. "What a sorry spectacle was presented at the Fifteenth International Congress of Hygiene and Demography at Washington last week," said Dr Wiley, "when Professor Long member of the Remsen Board, attempted to justify the addition of an active drug to the food supply of the nation. Dr. Long was one of the most enthusiastic protagonists of benzoate of soda in the Federal Court of Indianapolis when those who secured the appointment of the referee board, in defiance of law, sought to force the people of Indiana to eat their adulterated products. The people ask for bread, and Dr. Long and his assistants give them a stone in the form of the morlumb benzoate. "What is in sight in the way of the prolongation of life? Is there any hope to be offered to man of greater freedom from disease and a longer life? I answer unhesitatingly in the affirmative. Why should we be content with an average life of 44 years? That man's evidence of a show that man's greatest activities are developed with experience, and that the age between 60 and 70 is more productive for one who has lived in accordance with nature. "It is shown from statistics that we die sixteen years before we reach the maximum usefulness of man. I would like to see more old age. I would like to see more men and women with gray hair and more wrinkled faces than I see to-day." "To all this, objection may be made that a place must be made for the young man and young woman; that the old man and woman keep the young from development and usefulness. But to this I reply, that there is infinite opportunity for good work offered to all. If we can secure a race tree from disease, endowed with all those qualities of mind and body which make for human efficiency, we need not ask that every one become eminent and wealthy, but each can perform the duties which come to him in a way to develop a uniform excellence of the human race." OWNERS ADOPT A NEW POLICY Both Races to Live in the Same Street in Harlem District Property Owners and Real Estate Brokers Say that the Supply is Greater than the Demand Despite Covenant Negroes Move into W. 132nd street between Seventh and Eighth Avenues. The invasion of Harlem by Negroes continues to furnish food for discussion. A few evenings ago a meeting of property owners, comprising 138th and 139th streets, between Lenox and Seventh avenues, was held, and resolutions were adopted not to rent any more houses in the section to colored people. The resolution follows: We herewith resolve that every colored real estate broker be notified as to the following: That the owners of this section have unanimously agreed not to rent their homes and that each and every colored broker be notified to that effect in order that they may not waste any of their time or energy in seeing any of these owners. The houses referred to comprise from 100 to 145 W. 138th street and Tramp 104 to 145 W. 139th street, and the block from 138th street to 139th street on Seventh avenue. The action of the property owners is said to have been actuated more from a strictly business than a prejudicial standpoint based on color. It was pointed out at the meeting that houses are being opened for colored tenants with such amazing frequency that the supply in granite than the demand it has been the habit of the owner to turn out his white tenants and advertise for colored tenants when one or two houses were opened in a block, with the result that many of the property owners who let out their white tenants were unable to replace them with Negroes, thereby sustaining a big loss. A new policy is to be adopted by the property owners, which will bring about the living of colored and white tenants in the same block. Already Negroes have moved into the section in question, but instead of turning out the white tenants and putting in colored as herefore the white tenants will be permitted to remain, but no more houses for colored tenants will be opened in that section. In speaking of the renting of property in Harlem to Negroes, one colored real estate dealer stated to a representative of The Age that too many houses are being opened, and that the supply far exceeds the demand, which proves a financial loss to the property owners. Instances were cited in which some of the flats are only partially occupied. Not only are the white property owners who rent their present conditions but also the colored owners of real estate. While it' property owners of one district we are resolving not to allow any more colored tenants in one section of Harlem, a colored woman was consumating a deal whereby she leased 223 W.132nd street for a term of years. She is the first colored person to reside 132nd street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues, and in securing the property again the fallacy of a covenant, which prescribes that no Negroes shall buy, lease or rent property in a certain section, is shown. WANTS WHITE MAN'S PARTY. NEW ORLEANS, La., Oct. 1—While speaking at the Roosevelt meeting here last week John M. Parker, the Colonel's leading benchman in this state, told of the aims of the Progressives, the organization of a white man's party being one of their cherished ambitions. Parker said in part: "This movement means that Louisiana shall have an opportunity to throw off the old incubus of single-party government. It means that the old bogey of the civil war and the Negro in politics shall be killed for all time. Colonel Roosevelt has already stirred up more practical workers in Louisiana politics than did Bryan—more than Wilson can ever reach." The Colonel paid high tribute to Parker during his speech, saying: "I like a dead-straight man who is also a dead game man, and Parker is both." MADE ELECTION CLERK. Clarence N. Johnstone, 329 West 42d street, has been appointed a Deputy State Superintendent of Election by the State Superintendent. Mr. Johnstone is the son of the o. Dr. C. H. Marks.

Commissioner of Labor has investigate: the high ‘cost of living in thirty-two States for the past ten year: | in fifteen of the principal food products, and coal, and finds that | prices have doubled. He does not say so, but the increase in the | coat of living is due in very large measure to decrease in the hours |] of labor and increase in the rate of wages demanded by labor organizations, which has increased the cost of production to con- sumers without increasing the purchasing power of wages. .Manu- | facturers have to pay more to farmers and others for raw material | and in wages, and transportation agencies have to pay more for perating charges, wages being the principal charge, and theréfore | consumers, mostly ‘wage-earners, have to pay more for food, cloth- | ing and rents. For every‘advance of ten per cent. in wages con- sumers are taxed twerity-five per cent. by manufacturers or com- mon carriers. . < Inctease of wages and reduction of hours of labor lessen the purchasing power of money by increasing the cost ‘of production. Manufacturers cannot reduce the hours of labor and increase the wages of labor, and at the same time pay more for raw material and transportation, without increasing the prices of food products, clothing and fuel. They do not do it. Who, then, pays the increase? In the first place, laborers themselves, who are the largest body of consumers, pay for it. They work fewer hours and get more wages, but they have to pay more for everything they consume. They have a bigger. doliar but a smaller purchasing power of a dollar. This is as plain as the nose on the face, but there is not a labor leader in the country who can be made to see or understand it. And, too, in every walk of-life, when people have more money than they need for food, clothing, rent and heat, they spend more for things they don't need. When prices go up they demand that wages also go up. They never think of dispensing with the things they do not need and of retrenching in those they must have, And few people know how little they can live on who have not been | reduced to the want point of “a crust of bread and a place to sleep,” as Paul Laurence Dunbar put it. And it is up to every man to shape his living so that he may have a penny handy when he needs it, when the job he has fails him; because, in the last analysis, it is not the dollar made but the dollar saved that counts. The prosperity of this country has been fostered and developed by the Republican policy of protection to America® industries against foreign competition, by favoring our high priced labor in the home market against the cheap priced labor in the foreign markets. The Republicans know what they are doing because they have results to show for it and experience to keep on doing it.. The Democrats are opposed tothe protective policy and would tear it down, but they do not offer anything better and do not agree among themselves as to the nature of the substitute they offer. The people of the country have no faith in the Democratic party be- cause it has no results to show in the nation worth while, and is thoroughly discredited in the results it has to show in the State governments of the South, where it has ruled since 1876 and pro- | duced a system of administrative confusion more than that at the Tower of Babel when the world was young. “The nation wants prosperity, and it is disposed to abide in the Republican system of taxation which has made it great and pros- perous, rather than run after the Progressive party which promises everything or the Democratic party which promises nothing. The way to get more money in the pay envelope is to keep the Repub- lican party which made sound money and the pay envelope pos- sible, The people know what the Republican party stands for in | the administration of the nation; its record is written in the history of the nation from Fort Sumter’s battlements to Appomattox and its apple tree and from thence to national expansion and prosperity at home and abundant honor and credit abroad.

Memphis, Tennessee, Oct. 1.—Memphis the county seat of Shelby County, Tenn. society founded in 1836 and chartered as a city in 1849, called the Bilt City, 105 miles west of Nashville, is one of the chief commercial cities of the South and one of the most important cotton market in the United States. The growth of this city, both in population and commerce has been re- remarkable. The population has grown from less than 2,000 in 1850, to 131,105 in 1910. There are only five cities in the United States that have larger Negro population than Memphis. The last census shows Negro popu- lations in six cities as follows: Washington, D. C. 4,94,46; New York, 91,702; New Orleans, 89,283; Baltimore, 84,749; Philadelphia, 84,639; Memphis, 52,441. There are in Shelby Co., however, be- tween 90,000 and 100,000. The new Union depot which cost five million dollars, with equal accommodations for both races, the imposing skyscrapers, the beautifully shaded aerial streets, the costly residences, the lush acres of lovely public parks, theunction of several great railroads, the toll carm threading the avenues in every direction, the numerous factories, public buildings, costly and spacious churches, add to the charm and beauty of this more wonderful southern location on the Great "Father of Waters." Prosperous Negroes. The spirit of progress is contagious. The colored people of this city have taught the spirit. Many of them have been good. They have been helped and encouraged by their white neighbors. This is very guttingly. As evidence of the material advancement it is interesting to note that the value of the output of the various manufacturing establishments in Memphis has grown from a little more than one and a half million dollars in 1850 to over thirty million dollars in 1912, an increase of 2000 per cent.

Negro Bankz T. W. Negro banks are doing a business of fragrance, touching the race the business of fragrance and scent. They have 25,600. The Solvent Savings Bank and Trust Martin, president, and Harry Fisher, established, in 1915, a church, made a showing in its thirteenth annual statement at the close of June 15. The total revenue of 165,654 with deposits to $100,362.38 of the most period the Fraternal Bank and Trust Co. J. Jay President, and Alfred P.

Homar, T. W. Bradford, S. Carter, M. T. Fleming, Edward Johns-Hoyle, M. T. Fleming, John Koydals, H. R. Sadler, W. H. Hote. There are 50 colored physicians in Memphis, 7 dentists and 4 pharmacists. Colored men own and operate four dictionaries one hospital and one medical college. Undertakers and Embalmers There are four large undertaking establishments: Scott, Wilkerson & Scott, Thomas H. Hayes, Mecoy & Joyner and Barnett, Lewis & Willis. Last week, four undertakers received in gross $25,000. From January to July 27, 1912, he handled 339 funerals and received in the six months $33,000. Hayes owns the brick building in which he conducts his business, he carries in stock, automobiles, funerals, catering and plays 11 men the year round. Scott, Wilkerson & Scott conducted 214 funerals from January 1 to July 29, 1912, receiving in gross $21,000. For the same period Barnett, Lewis & Wilkerson handled 116 funerals. The four undertakers handle 2,000 funerals annually and receive in gross $140,000. All the undertakers and embalmers have the most modern improvements in stock and facilities. A few of them handled funerals last year that cost $500. Co-operating with the Negro Baptists of East Arkansas, North Mississippi and Tennessee, Dr. Terrell founded the highest hospital 1809. The equipment of this institution is modern in every particular and the service is excellent. During the past year 500 patients have been treated, with difficult operations performed with a mortality less than three per cent. The management has the highest endorsement of white physicians of Memphis, among them being Dr. Joseph E. Baldwin, Dr. E. Haines and Dr. W. Smythe, Dr. E. Haines and Dr. W. Haldwin. When these physicians have colored patients to operate on they patriotize this hospital. The institution Hospital is the University of West Tennessee founded at Jackson, Tenn., in 1900, by Dr. M. V. Lynk, and removed to Memphis in 1807. The object of this institution is the education of Negro youth and the furnish facilities for equipment in the professions. Accordingly this institution has, in addition to higher branches, departments of medicine, dentistry, law and nursing. It is non-sectarian and independent. The school has three buildings valued at $25,000. Last year 10 students matriculated under 17 instructors. There were 18 graduates, of whom 8 were from dentistry, 3 from pharmacy, one from law and one from the department of nurse training. The school maintains a high standard of proficiency. By the weight of his character, wisdom and energy, Dr. Lynk, the founder and right, surpasses the school with money collected from tuition and donations. It is noteworthy that the Negro Baptist Hospital and the University of West Tennessee have the co-operation of the Bluff City Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association composed of the physicians, dentists and pharmacists of Memphis. Public Spirited Negroes Among the public-spirited colored citizens of Memphis, mention should be made of Charles Wilson, an employee at the customs House for many years, who was a member of the Republican Convention since 1822. For many years Wilson has tried to interest his race in establishing a temporary school for vulnerable Negro children. He has succeeded in raising a large number of students for that purpose and has still hopes to succeed in his labored undertaking. Dr. L. G. Patterson who is associated with Dr. Terrell in the Baptist Negro Hospital, and Dr E. W. Irving, to under appointment by the city attorney, are among the colored schools of Memphis. By T. O. Fuller has done considerable work among people along the line of civil improvement. During the colored Farm Bureau Convention of 1831 Ed. H. Crump at the Tri-State Four Grounds and served faithfully and successfully in making the camp a school of order and practical sanitation. His services were greatly appreciated by the press of Memphis. Dr. Feller went to Memphis from North Carolina twelve years ago and took charge of a small congregation worshiping in a rented hall. Under his leadership, Memphis has accumulated property valued at $15,000. Ten years ago he took charge of Howe Institute with one building valued at $20,000. The Institute now owns property valued at $15,000. The attendance ranges from 500 to 700 students from 13 States. He teaches a class of pastors who represent 10,000 members. In the Bible class, men are being women are prepared for domestic service and community work. The public schools of Memphis in charge of 160 colored teachers are the Carson, the Corker, the Auctioneer, the Greenwood, the Dhlike, and the Kortrecht High School. Expensive Negro Churches. There are 70 colored churches in the city valued at $250,000; 16 of them cost on an average $12,500. colored posters doing splendid work are Rev. J. A. Lindsey, Rev. J. H. Griffin, Rev. I. A. Johnson, Rev. J. W. Smith, and Rev. W. I. Smith of the Methodist denomination. Episcopalian, and Rev. T. J. Searey, Rev. T. O. Puller, Rev. W. J. McMichael, Rev. J. W. Ribbling and Rev. A. L. Hall, Epistles. The private schools of the city in charge of 35 teachers are the Howe institute, the Le Moyenne institute, the Howe institute, the Howe institute, the Catholic church and school are in the same building, which cost $10,000. Fifty persons from other churches of the city have come to the Howe institute. The Howe institute, Rev. T. O. Father principal, was founded by the life philanthropist, Peter Howe of Illinois, and is controlled by the New York Baptist of Tennessee, and the Home Mission Society with headquarters at New York. It is gratifying to state that the feeling between the races in Memphis is most cordial. A leading white citizen stated to the writer: "The colored people of Memphis have their future in their own hands. White people are only to help to help the white people to make of themselves good citizens." 4. Wichita, Kan., Oct. 1.—In proportion to the population Wichita is the most progressive city in Kansas both the white and the colored. Of an 8,600 population, 6,000 are colored—and they are an enterprising people. There are six colored churches, the newest of which is St. Augustine's Episcopal Mission. All but one is heavily support from the lodges and population in general. The Y. M. C. A. is also active. The business motto of the city, "Watch Wichita Win" is upheld by the colored population in the city with its 6,000 colored population it can point out men in all lines of business from banker to drayman. Four colored physicians attend to the needs of their people and people chance they fail to colored undertaker who is sure to send you from this world in grand style. The one dentist is a busy man who trust to his patrolly advice "keeps whispers." Only one drug belongs to our people at present but rumor whispers of a second one soon. The colored visitor to Wichita finds a city of accommodations at his command, all strictly modern and well equipped. However, the height of interest for the colored people of this city at the present time is the segregation of the colored people and the enrolment last week reached 325, however it will probably reach 400 before the expiration of another week. The largest of the buildings, the Toussaint L'Onverture, which has two classrooms, manual training and domestic science departments, and room for a large gymnasium which has not yet been completed. The airing, heating and ventilation sign and when the open air room for tuberculosis students has been completed, it is said that it will be the most modern grade school building in the campi river. The other buildings while not as large, are just as well equipped. From this glimpse we would like for the editor and readers to spend a few minutes thought in wishing well to build but intently alive city of Wichita. RICHMOND VA Richmond Va. Sept. 24—Vacation is overg and the public schools of Richmond opened for the session of 1912-1913. Richmond elementary and grammar schools are all that can be desired for both races, but in the colored high school, the only condition of affairs. None of the faculty members are taught neither is Latin. There are no business nor commercial courses taught and at the end of the four years course, the student gets diploma, diploma that that the student received in the public schools of Virginia. "The school authorities have refused or failed to include business and commercial courses in the colored high school, the business and commercial school, as are also Latin, French German and Spanish. In Richmond there are two banks three insurance companies, a half dozen or more large fraternities, a large business and professional men which employ fully half a thousand clerks, stenographers, typewriters, bookkeepers, expert accountants, etc. These people have to go outside of the city to secure clerical help in many instances, the school authorities knowing this, refuse to make it possible for colored students in the public schools to obtain education as well if they for this work. Virginia State University of Virginia Hartford University and the Virginia State University of the North Carolina State University for bachelor's students these states are the states and our own wheels after these institutions of the Virginia Normal and Industrial Inst ute at Petersburg to secure training in these schools. It is a disarray to exist in its public schools that forces the parents of the colored children to pay to give their children an education which the whites get free. There is no such program in the schools, while there is a score or more in the white schools. St. Philips Parish Kindergarten (Protestant Episcopal supplies his bus) but the bus too, is from the town where he is a taxpayer, and not upon the city. The first of the fall season and one of the pretrial weddings to be solemnized in Richmond, was the marriage of Joseph Gordon Thurston of Cleveland, (0). Tuesday morning, September 10, in the home of the bride's family in West Duval street, George St. Julien Stephens, was licensed to marry in marriage. Edward W. Stephens, a younger brother, was best man. Little Sallie Irene Austin, niece of the bride, was licensed to marry the Rev. Dr. W. Johnson of the First Baptist Church, pastor of the bride. Mrs. Joseph St. Gilpin played the wedding march. After the marriage a reception was held. They were at noon for their home in Cleveland. LEXINGTON KY Lexington, Ky.

READ THE WORDS OF OTHERS I cannot begin to tell you all the benefits I have received since the arrival of the two specimens of Loadstones you sent me. For many years I was convinced that no person lived who was more unfortunate than myself. Loss in business; death of loved ones and other troubles too numerous to mention, were driving me to a state of frenzy. A friend told me to write you for information regarding the system of two Loadstones, and their power. As a last resort I did so, and later purchased two of them. Since then the great change in my career has been so remarkable as to be almost beyond belief. My business increased rapidly, and not a thing has occurred to mar my state of happiness. You are at liberty to use this letter as reference, for I believe it is my duty to lot the world know of the wonderful change in my life, that I believe was brought about through the power and influence of two Loadstones.

The angriest man in town at 6.30 of the same evening was James Reece Europe, the Fregs' musical conductor, who from 5.30 had been endcovering to get to the Fregs' suburban at Manhattan Casino from that part of New York City commonly termed the tenderloin. At 6.20 street he mounted the surface car which can one block and halted for an indefinite period. Europe discounted and returned to the subway. In order to make Maurice good time he rode downstairs to the Grand Central Station so that he could get the express system. The express trains seemed to have been blocked for some reason, and Europe resorted to the local. The same run to the next station and also helped for another indefinite period. The enormous Europe came more entwined to the same spot that he stumbled from, to wit: Times Square, having wanted three-quarters of an hour hanging the loop. After adjoining the Casino he searched for a train, and finding JESSE A. SHITPP An Drought Pier the same, proceeded post haste toward Manhattan Casino, stopping on the way to gather evening attire. Proceeding uptown in the lightning taxi cab, the worthy conductor found that he had left most of his music at home on the piano (commonly termed bureau). He likewise discovered that an abundant growth of beard had suddenly sprung upon his chin, and last, but not least, that something was the matter with the taxi cab. The only twist thing about which was the register, which flipped and flipped flippantly. Anyway, the said Europe, tattered and torn, nervous and worn, finally managed to reach Manhattan Casino in time to rehearse the drummer of the orchestra, the rest of the players having gone up on the roof to sleep. Such was the condition prior to the opening of the Frogs' second minstrel show of the season, which had been repeated at the request of a great many prior patrons, who, I must say, failed to materialize at the second affair, at 9.30, and the show was on. Minstrels assembled in colors galore, ramping and entrancing music filled the air, and, after the musical, "Gentlemen, he cheated I many seated," by the interlokator, J. A. Shipp, the famous Froglass - Andrew Ridgway and Cassie Norwood - formerly of St. Philip's aggrieved, now professional, entertainers, proceeded to make merry with jokes, fresh as the Wood River Eggs. Then follow songs, new and old. The first member was by Sam Richardson and was entitled "The Finest Man," which survived applause. Move jokes, following which Charlie Brown snips and wails DRAMATICS AND ATHLETICS BOB KELLEY An Art Nanny hungingly and plaintively for "Dear Old Rose," and had Rose heard him she would have come back if for no other reason than to relieve our feelings of distress. The next number was "Summer Girl," which was followed by Bill Farrell's pleasing rendition of "Goodbye Dreams," a beautiful little ballad by our friend Cecil McPherson. Now comes the real Cheese. Cassie Norwood is announced, and, following rousing cheers, delivers "All Night Long" in his metal fascinating manner. Here is one young man who should take to the stage for a firework, instead of working nine months out of the year for charity, which at best pays you in letters of thanks, handshakes and smiles. Now for the great Andrew Bishop, who had spent three hours rehearsing his number with the orchestra, and finally managed to forget all but the first and last line of the song entitled "Droop Dem Eyes," the music of which is one of Mr. Europe's most pleasing melodies. Bishop started off with a great rush, but after the first line he spent much time exploring, evidently trying to discover the other words, which one must have concealed on the premises, but, like a tree showman, he wound up with the last words, "droop dem eyes." He apologized later in the evening for his error, explaining that he had just obtained the song that afternoon. "Stand" Payne rendered "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" and excellently displayed the real color, tone and sweetness of a beautiful baritone voice; doubtless to say the encores were plentiful. His number closed the first part. Now, gentlemen of the orchestra, kindly hand us a large chord in B flat and we will bring on Bones McPherson and 'a fine Capt. Jackson, end men of the second part. "Tennessee" is repeated by McPherson, who is now in a position to take liberties with the jokes, which he trades with Capt. Jackson, who finally rises to sing "Robt. E. Lee" in the most surprising manner. New Yorkers have never seen or heard Capt. Jackson in operation heretofore; from the pleasing way in which he got his number over and the howling demand for repetition of the same, we will consider ourselves cheated herafter if he does not appear in future Frog theatricals. I must admit that the best dancing of the evening's performance was done by the smiling captain, who delivered a package of surprises to his many friends. He shuffled out shuffles that we least surmised were in his system. Third Part with Bob Kelley and Sam Lucas on the extremes. Kelley sang "I'm Going Crazy" and "Dad" Lucas rendered "I'm Going to Live Anyhow Until I Die." Although the scene was one of jollity it assumed a pathetic vein when "Dad" went over in the middle of the number and shook hands with "Pop" Kelley, for these two are the oldest performers. It is useless to describe the hands they received for their numbers, because everyone knows what they can do and what they always do. They closed the first part in a riot of applause. The olo was opened by Edgar Connors, formerly of the Cole and Johnson Company, later of the Sambo Girl, and now a feature of the Charity Girl Company playing at the Globe Theatre. Edgar rendered two numbers in a breezing manner and got away with plenty of applause. Sam Lucas returned in the olo with his humorous monolog and finished his act with a scene from Uncle Tom's Cahin which was dramatically rendered. The scene was received by the audience in a manner which expressed appreciation of artistic acting. The after piece, "Who Tickled Lize?" was performed by the whole company and was simply laugh after laugh. Sammie Corker being Lize for the occasion and the part of Pete was performed by J. A. Shipp, the author. The musical hit of the sketch was "Dusky Maiden," which was rendered by a double sextet. So ended the Frogs' second minstrel show artificially successful. At 11:30 we danced and we continued to dance until dawn when we received the polite invitation to go home from the orchestra of twenty-four New Amsterdam musicians, under the direction of the black Sonsa. E. E. Thompson. Many notable persons were present and the crowd, although not as large as the musical Prok gathering, made up her back of numbers by our enthusiasm of enjoyment. Cook and Stevens are at the Savoy Theatre, San Diego, Cal. Mattie Phillips and her Jungle Girls are at the Union Theatre, Providence. Ray and Taylor are at the Washington Theatre, Boston, this week. Carter and Bluford are at the Majestic Theatre, Kalamazoo, Mich. Bradford's Chicken Trust Company is at the New Duchess Theatre, Poughkeepsie, N. Y. Hart and Johnson are at Proctor's Newark, this week, and are one of the hits of the bill. Copeland and Payton are at the Pantages Theatre, Tacoma, Wash., with Portland to follow. Marshall and Tribble are making quite a favorable impression in vaudeville and are working steadily. Augustus J. Smith, comedian, closed with the J. M. Busby's Minstrels at Kansas City, Mo., September 21. William H. Reid's Double Quartet is with Stetson's Uncle Tom's Cabin Company. The singers will be in New York within a few weeks. --- Clarence Powell, Johnny and Little Henry Woods, Grundy and Lasso Marjorie Lorrain and Wiggins and Wiggins are on the bill at the Circle Theatre, Philadelphia. --- At the Auditorium Theatre, Philadelphia, this week, Rose Fox, Jones and Perkins, the Hiawatha Trio and the Prampins are on the bill. --- The Miller Musical Family closed at the Court Theatre, Newark, Saturday, and left Sunday for Washington, where they will spend the winter. --- Billy Butler, of Pittsburgh, who was formerly trap drummer at the Auditorium Theatre, Philadelphia, is with the Smart Set Company in a similar capacity this season. . . . John T. Gibson, manager of the Auditorium Theatre, Philadelphia, has consummated a deal for the purchase of the property on which he will erect his new theatre, which will be the finest located south of Spruce street. . . . Leon Williams, president of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association, is in good humor. His act, the Dixie Serenaders, opened last week and went big. The act has everything new but its name and several of the old members. Duke Johnson and Mae Wells have returned from forty two weeks in Australia and Honolulu where they met with big success. The act opened at the Orpheum Theatre, Oakland, Cal., last week The West End Theatre, formerly the Blue Mouse Theatre, of Washington, D. C., which was conducted under the management of H. C. Smith for the past two years, has passed into the hands of Charlie Green, manager of the Foraker Theatre, Washington, D. C. Mr. Smith retires from the theatrical field to devote his time to other interests. Mr. Green will run both houses. CRESCENT THEATRE. The bill at the Crescent Theatre the first half of the week was such that not a person went to sleep for want of entertainment. Even the motion pictures occasioned attention, although there are times when they furnish more entertainment than some of the actors. Daisy Martin and Delaney are playing a return engagement at the Crescent. Miss Martin continues to improve. I accused her last May, while she was a member of the Smart Set Company, of singing her songs with a lack of expression I find it necessary to make the statement that she has overcome this fault. In fact, her work now suggests that she could do something calling for some dramatic effort if she studied. The skit the Butlers present contains much merit, although it is too long and talky. "How the Cruel Papa Relented" or some other similar title, deals in a story of how, a hard-working man was deserted by him wife, who took all his hard earnings and ran away with another man—one of the trifling sort, who in turn abandoned her. Then the woman, sick and broke returned to her husband who had quit working hard and had become a successful gambler. After much pleading and shedding of tears on the part of the wife, the husband relented and took the farmer "idol of his heart," begging more the promising to be good. This little playlist is about the most serious that has been presented by two people at the Crescent, and in justice to them it can be said that some of their histrionic efforts were praiseworthy. Under the coaching of Jesse A. Shipp the Brothers would be able to give a more even as well as abbreviated performance. Charles Anderson, a female impersonator, opened the hall. L. A. W.

DAN MICHAEL'S BENEFIT The benefit given at the Crescent Theatre Sunday night for Dan Michaels was a big success. Michaels has been sick for several weeks. Among the acts appearing were Joe Bright, Ralph Delaney, Emma Butler, James Crosby, Maude Jones, Buster and Rockpile Benny Jones, Sam Davis, Parker and Dabney, Lottie Harris, Martin and Winfred, John Glass, Dike Thomas, Demos Jones, Tom Flechet, Brown and Delk. Zeb Bledieux was stage manager. The committee of which Fred Davis was chairman consisted of Bob Slater, Will Farrrell, Will Ball, George Hamilton, A. G. Brooks, Will Brown, Bill Nash, Daisy Martin, Chappie DeLoach. The show opened at 1215 and the last act on the bill finished at 145 Manager Wilbur of the Crescent Theatre donate his house for the benefit and all the attaches of the theatre gave their services gratuitously. "A TRIP TO JAMATU" "A Trip to Jamatu" was given a Young's Casino last Thursday evening by the Harlem Utilitarian Neighborhood Club, the newest neighborhood club of New York, which gave its initial performance by way of an introduction into the amusement sphere. At 9 o'clock, following the overture, the curtain was drawn upon the scene of Act L, the office of Wolf and Shark, brokers and speculators played by Hayes, Prior and George W. Marshall, respectively. After usual introduction about volume, gallery, Mr. Prior delivers orders to the stenographer, Mme. Louse, Cooke, who typed on the machine until the arrival of Bill Whatt (Chester Bagley), who played the role of the come on guy. Well, anyway, the broker with the aid of the stenographer schemed up a plan to trim Bill Whatt of his inventions, namely, a number of automatic singing dolls which we get a slant at in the second act. While thusly schenning the Flower Sisters come upon the scene and are persuaded into giving a demonstration of their ability as performers. They do so by giving a regular minstrel show in which some really new jokes are sprung and several musical numbers rendered, opening with "Robt. E. Lee," by Beatrice Jackson, following which "The Sea Is My Sweetheart" was tendered by Peroy Lee. "Surmurun Girl" was delivered by Rost Mitchell in a pleasing manner, for which we received a large encore and an equally large bouquet. Now comes Jane Laventore with that "Sneaky Rag" "Jane has not the loudest voice in the world and couldn't be heard at the rear of the hall, but the manner in which she did that "Sneaky Rag" easily demonstrated to the audience one and all what Jane was getting at. We must admit she was the hit of the evening, for in between the encores the audience yelled "Oh, you Jane," and I helped them yell. Some hit! The next and final number of the minstrel show was "Loving Man," which was rendered by Bessie Pirkinson, the costur of "Who Will Win?" Of course we know this was a success as is everything Bessie sings. The chorus ability assisted in dancing throughout the number. Credit must be given Miss Pirkinson for her very distinct articulation, something which is very rare upon the stage, even among professionals. Act 2. Scene, palace ground of the Queen (Minnie Brown), who is followed by the minister, Harold Hardy who announced himself as the Minister Plenty of the Penitentiary. Then of course comes the brokers and the come on guy, who meet the queen and demonstrate with their dancing dolls, following which the queen offers to marry the inventor, who immediately faint upon getting one good slant at the queen's most homely face. The part of the page was played by Master George Nichols, who came on and said, "Your Majesty" and then heat it. The dancing dolls were led in their number by clever little Ruth Cherry, who likewise received a huge bouquet. She was assisted by Winola Leneraux, Arizona Warren, Gladys Harrison, Irma Robinson, Carrie Lauder, Flora Dancy and Marion Laventore. The show girls, besides those mentioned, were Mayme Cherry, Teresa Bradford, Anna Standsberry, Ethel Smith, Bessie Mayhood and Carrie Lauder. The production was written and staged by J. A. Shipp, who deserves greatest credit for its success and the music was under the personal direction of Mine, Daisy Tapley. A large and handsomely dressed audience rewarded the Harlem Utilitarian Neighborhood Club by attending their first affair which was voted a decided success, the credit of which must be given to Mrs. Laura McAdoo Craver, president, who in her untiring efforts were ably assisted by Mrs. Lucille Green, secretary, and Mrs. Lucille Laing, the treasurer of the club. Doubtless to say the next affair is looked forward to with much anticipation. ON THE DUDLEY CIRCUIT. S. H. Dudley Theatre, Washington, D. C. Lew W.

Will Anthony Madden, manager of the St. Christopher Basketball Club, has issued the following letter to the Associated Basketball Managers and the public: This letter is written to inform all managers and the general public in regards to the position and standing that Charles Bradford, the well-known basketball player, will hold during the season of 1912-13. Bradford originally and for many years was a member of the St. Christopher Club, and was recently a member of the All Stars and Smart Set. He also played from time to time with other teams. He had been re-elected a member of the St. Christopher Club and as such will be eligible to play with the club during the coming season, and all seasons to follow as long as he remains a full-fledged member of the team as he now is. For the past two years Bradford has been considered an outlaw in our basketball world on account of his affiliation with that famous team—namely—the New York All Stars. The origin of this team is now basketball history. My chief reason for sending this letter to the press is to avoid any contention or disagreement in regards to Bradford's eligibility when he appears on the basketball courts to represent the St. Christopher Club. There has been so much contention. OPEN ALL WINTER THE COSIEST PLAYHOUSE ON THE COAST ROYAL THEATRE 1209 Springwood Ave., Asbury Park, N. J.

Wherefore, I will not affirm or deny the grounds on which these contitions were based, still they have always been distasteful to me, and I am sure also to all other right-thinking managers, and especially to the public who paid their money to witness a physical argument and not a verbal one. If though, after carefully reading my letter there are any managers who do not care to line up against the St Christopher team with Bradford, why I wish they would communicate with me before hand and not wait until the teams are lined up on the court. Bradford is in good standing with our club, and is on our team to stay. Trusting that all my brother managers will look at the matter fairly and see it from the same standpoint as myself, I remain. Very truly. WILL ANTHONY MADDEN. Manager St. Christopher Hasketball Club. NEWS OF GREATER NEW YORK For human hair goes to Greenberg's 688 North avenue, near 80th et.—Adv.—angi-1yr Attention.

At the Wednesday night weekly basketball carnival at Youngs Casino, a decided novelty has been introduced in the form of a Quaker dance, which jumped into immediate popularity. The large and jolly crowd after witnessing two closely contested games in which the St. Cryptian teams were the winners, were delighted with the presentation of the Quaker dance which was introduced by Henry S. Creamer for the first time in New York City. At two minutes before midnight the dance was announced and in the dim lights the couples danced until the stroke of 13 when at the sound of the whistle the band and the light came up which was the first time the band shake hands with the person nearest. Earlier in the evening one of the platforms has been selected as the Quaker and that person's name is written and placed in a sealed envelope which is opened at 12 o'clock. The lucky individual is standing hands over the appointed Quaker with the sum of $8.80; each hand is worth $1.25. The Peeper on last Wednesday evening happened to be Romeo L. Dourharty, and his two persons holding his hands of 33 husband to be Miss Perry and Mrs B. Lloyd, the sister of the mother of Cyprus. The young indian came to the stage and presented with $1.25 each and also received a reward sheet. From the manner in which the Quaker dance Was received we figure that it will soon equal its sister novelty the Spot Dance, which is held every Saturday by the Quaker Young Women. The triptych port of the Quaker school is the fact that the Quaker is just as liable to be a woman as a man which lends an unfortunate to the affair and makes it most interesting because of the fact that anyone might be the uaker and not the woman. No doubt we may count up the novelay as a popular hit of the future. ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCEMENTS. Mr. and Mrs. Benj. 8. Howard. 137 Washington avenue, Jay Brook. H. Y. 30th street, New York. 2.
